Brest and Nantes neutralize each other

The two teams were unable to decide between themselves after 90 minutes (0-0). Brest misses the opportunity to distance itself from Lille. The Champions League is not assured.

22:52

Brest wants to do it again (0-0, 90+3)

The Brestois push (finally) to try to impose themselves. They want to do it again after the victory obtained at the very end of the game against Rennes last weekend.

5 minutes of additional time

5 minutes for one of the two teams to make the difference.

22:48

Rain of boxes (0-0, 88th)

After Doumbia’s foul on Coco, which cost him a yellow card, it was Chirivella’s turn to get one. The Nantais is warned by Clément Turpin.

22:43

Kadewere Du Bout Du Pied (0-0, 82e)

Solid defensively, the Nantes residents have a few moves to play. Like this ball missed with the tip of the foot by Kadewere served by Mohamed.

22:40

Nantes cuts the game (0-0, 78th)

The Nantes residents prevent the Brestois from deploying their game. The Canaries systematically make mistakes when the Bretons accelerate. Kombouaré’s plan is working for the moment.

22:38

11 points taken in the last 5 minutes

As the end of the match approaches, Brest can still believe in victory. This season, the Bretons took 11 points in the last 5 minutes. The most recent example remains the victory won in added time last week against Rennes (4-5) in the most prolific Brittany derby in history.

22:31

Mohamed, Mollet and Chirivella enter (0-0, 71e)

the key will perhaps come from them. Antoine Kombouaré makes his first 3 changes.

Mollet, Mohamed and Chirivella came on in place of Traoré, Moutoussamy and Abline, unhappy in front of goal.

22:27

Changes are necessary (0-0, 64th)

This second half is far from exciting. Who will decide this draw? The solution may come from the bench but the two coaches do not seem to want to make changes.

The Brestois had to make two in the first period due to injuries.

22:19

Yellow card for Lala (0-0, 59th)

Poor in terms of play, this second act is marked by mistakes. Lala, Brest full-back, is warned for a foul on Pallois. The central defender put his body perfectly in opposition.

22:17

Calf strain for Del Castillo

Released before half-time, Romain Del Castillo suffered from a calf strain.

22:14

Brest gets their foot back on the ball (0-0, 49th)

This start of the second period started again on the same basis as the first. Brest confiscates the ball and Nantes just defends. Still no shots to report since the restart.

22:04

It’s back to Brest

Both teams have 45 minutes left to try to make a difference.

21:50

Turpin whistles for half-time

After a first period marked by a lack of realism, Brest and Nantes returned to the locker room back to back.

In total, both teams had 12 shots on goal but only 2 attempts found the target. both are from Brest.

21:45

Big heat for Brest (0-0, 40th)

Note that Del Castillo gave way to Pereira Lage on the Brest side.

21:41

Nantes do not string together two passes (0-0, 39th)

Kombouaré’s men fail to keep the ball and leave their camp. Can’t wait for halftime.

21:39

A problem for Del Castillo? (0-0, 36th)

The Brest right winger has been looking at his bench for several minutes. He seems to be touched. 3 players are warming up.

21:35

Camara rolls up (0-0, 33rd)

With one touch Mounié gives it to Camara who misses the target. An acceleration which can give ideas to the Brestois, who cannot do so in the placed game.

21:33

30 minutes of play

The first half hour has just been played. Brest has the ball but possession is sterile. Nantes does not leave the slightest space. Only 1 shot was on target. It is signed Locko, Brest full-back.

21:29

It’s over for Lees-Melou (0-0, 27th)

Pierre Leas-Melou gives up his place to the applause of an entire stadium. Martin replaces him in midfield.

21:27

Lees-Melou requests change (0-0, 25th)

The 31-year-old midfielder cannot continue the match. The pain is too strong. He just gestured to his bench. Change is coming.

21:25

Locko first player warned (0-0, 22nd)

The Brest full-back concedes a yellow card after a violent collision with Marcus Coco. The Nantes people obtain a free kick which Traoré is responsible for taking. The danger is removed by Satriano.

21:22

Lees-Melou boitille (0-0, 19e)

Suffering from his right calf, Pierre Lees-Melou is holding the bandage. The midfielder serves his teeth.

21:20

Verbal warning for Del Castillo (0-0, 17th)

The Brest winger is taken aside by Mr. Turpin. Del Castillo tripped Abline. An anti-gambling gesture which earned him a simple verbal warning.

21:18

The Canaries want to attack on the counter (0-0, 15th)

In good shape with 3 goals in the last 5 matches, Abline goes on the counter-attack. His center is deflected by Brassier, heroic scorer last week against Rennes.

21:16

Nantes does not see the ball (0-0, 13th)

Kombouaré’s men rarely see the ball at the start of the match. Their ownership amounts to 37%. However, the defensive block is solid.

21:13

The Franci-Le-Blé audience plays its role to the fullest. For 10 minutes, the atmosphere has been there. enough to galvanize the people of Brest.
